RE: Retirees Access to Base
Dear Mr. Collins:
Local 514 is making a formal request on behalf of our members who have retired. Our retirees and this local leadership would appreciate American Airlines reconsidering the decision of denying retirees access to the AA credit union and especially the pass office.
There are a lot of our retired members and your former employees who worked over 40 years with this company. They dedicated their life to making this one of the best places to work in Oklahoma and a strong hold in the Airline community for decades. Mr. Collins, a lot of our retirees are not comfortable with computers, jetnet and booking flights online. Lets not forget some have been gone for over 20 to 30 years.
In closing I would like to think they are still a part of this company and our friends who deserve this request to be taken seriously.
Sincerely
Gary Yingst
Vice President Local 514
